HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF ONSLOW COUNTY

Attracted by the waterways and longleaf pine forests, the first European and English settlers arrived in Onslow County in 1713 in what was originally part of the colonial precincts of Carteret and New Hanover. Onslow County was formed in 1734 and was named for the Honorable Arthur Onslow, Speaker of the British House of Commons. After a lethal 1752 hurricane, the county courthouse was relocated from Town Point to Wantland’s Ferry; this settlement was eventually incorporated in 1842 and named Jacksonville after President Andrew Jackson. Largely a collection of sparsely populated agrarian and maritime communities, Onslow County dramatically changed in the early 1940s with the establishment of the Army’s Camp Davis (now defunct) near Holly Ridge and the creation of Camp Lejeune in 1941.

Onslow County’s flat, gently rolling terrain covers 767 square miles and is located in the southeastern coastal plain of North Carolina, approximately 120 miles east of Raleigh, and 50 miles north of Wilmington. The City of Jacksonville is the county seat, and the areas surrounding the city constitute the major population centers and growth areas in the county. The county is home to more than 193,000 people and includes the incorporated towns of Holly Ridge, Richlands, Swansboro, North Topsail Beach, and a portion of Surf City. Approximately 156,000 acres comprise the U.S. Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune and related bases of Camp Johnson, , and New River Air Station and more than 43,000 marines and sailors are stationed there.

Onslow County offers the ultimate in outdoor coastal recreation and sports with over 30 miles of beautiful beaches, rivers and ocean teeming with an abundance of marine life, and forests filled with diverse wildlife. The scenic 40 mile long New River is the only large river in the continental United States with headwaters and mouth in the same county. The White Oak River serves as the eastern county line from its headwaters to Bogue Sound in Swansboro. Onslow County remains an important agricultural force, its rich farmland still yielding beautiful crops. Today the abundance and beauty found in scenic terrain, shoreline, and seascape continue to define Onslow County, attracting industry, tourism, and families to our distinctive community.

MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE SIGNIFICANT FACTS

 Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune has been home to the “Expeditionary Forces in Readiness” for the past 76 years and has become the home base for the II Marine Expeditionary Force, 2nd Marine Division, 2nd Marine Logistics Group and other combat units and support commands.

 In April, 1941, construction began on an 11,000-acre tract in Onslow County. The first Base headquarters was in a summer cottage on Montford Point, then later Hadnot Point in 1942. The Base was renamed that year in honor of John A. Lejeune, 13th Commandant of the Marine Corps.

 The Base occupies 246 square miles and contains 6,946 buildings.

 Camp Lejeune has 14 miles of beaches that make it a primary area for amphibious assault training, and its location between the deep-water ports of Wilmington and Morehead City allow for fast deployments.

 The Base and surrounding community is home to an active duty, dependent, retiree, and civilian employee population of approximately 190,000. Camp Lejeune generates nearly $3 billion in commerce each year, emanating from payrolls and contracts to support the structure necessary to train Marines.

 Camp Lejeune is supplemented by four satellite facilities: Camp Geiger, , , Camp Johnson, and the Greater Sandy Run Training Area. When added together, the Base and four satellite facilities along with MCAS Cherry Point comprise the largest concentration of Marines and U.S. Navy sailors in the world.

 Camp Lejeune is a six-time recipient of the Commander-in-Chief’s award for Installation Excellence. The award recognizes the Base on a Department of Defense level for effectively managing assets and developing quality programs to accomplish the mission of providing expeditionary forces in readiness.

 The Base contains 80 live-fire ranges, 98 maneuver areas, 32 gun positions, 48 tactical landing zones and state-of-the-art Military Operations in three Urban Terrain training facilities.
